John Lee Hooker – Live At Newport
CD 2002 issue.
From the 1960 and 1963 Newport Folk Festivals
A CD I got today. A striking combination of traditional Japanese music and contemporary jazz. Beautifully recorded.

That’s an enticement, will see if it’s streamable.
Edit: it is, and I’m enjoying first play.
Now playing…
Chris Thile - Laysongs
Streaming on Qobuz (96/24)… listed on the new release section on Qobuz and taking a chance and taking out for a spin and the opening track is sounding mighty fine! …looking forward to the rest of the album.
Can’t decide? The Tidal chaps produce themed mixes based on what you’ve listened too (not sure if the Naim implementation does this tho). So my Mix 8 looks pretty spiffing and gets even better.
I’m thinking The Flying Lizards meets Wire
Lightnin’ Hopkins – Lightnin’ (The Blues Of Lightnin’ Hopkins)
Released in 1961, Hybrid SACD version from 2018.
The Very Best Of Joe Cocker, eighteen tunes from Sheffield’s finest.
Loom, the second (and most recent) album by Swiss group The Kali Trio. Pleasingly angular electro-jazz.
CD - Dovetail Records 1994 : )
Ed - guitar, synth, wierdness
Joie - synth, strangeness
Jon - flute, ghasps
Merv - drums, percussion, postulations
Zia - bass, rainmaker
All tracks recorded and mixed at The Mill, Somerset during all types of weather in 1993-4
A recent discovery for me, a sort of ambient / classical thing, a bit like Nils Frahm; indeed it was recorded in Frahm’s studio. Just brilliant, and available on Bandcamp.
Finishing the evening with some nostalgia, supported many acts like the Stones….he may be still be performing
From 1971
